HUNTINGTON, NY – One of indie rock’s fastest-rising acts, Inhaler, is set to electrify Long Island when they bring their Open Wide North America Tour to The Paramount on Monday, September 15, 2025. Known for their anthemic choruses, atmospheric soundscapes, and charismatic stage presence, the Dublin-based quartet has quickly become a global force, earning comparisons to the very legends they grew up listening to.

Formed in 2012 while still teenagers, Inhaler steadily carved out a following across Ireland and the UK before breaking into the international spotlight with their debut album It Won’t Always Be Like This, which topped charts in 2021. Since then, the band—fronted by Elijah Hewson (son of U2’s Bono) – has made waves with major festival slots, arena support tours for icons like Arctic Monkeys and Pearl Jam, and headlining performances that sell out venues across Europe and North America.

Now, with their third album Open Wide topping charts earlier this year, Inhaler is bringing their biggest and boldest show yet to Huntington. Fans at The Paramount can expect a night of soaring melodies, tightly crafted rhythms, and the kind of raw energy that has turned the band from local newcomers into international headliners in just a few short years.

About the Tour & The Music

  • The North American fall leg follows a busy spring run and includes headline concerts in key cities like Huntington, as well as festival appearances at Sea.Hear.Now, Shaky Knees, and Riot Fest.
  • The tour supports their third studio album, Open Wide, released in February 2025. The album was produced by Kid Harpoon and debuted at No. 1 in Ireland, and No. 2 in the UK, marking another major milestone for the band.
  • Since rising to prominence, Inhaler has amassed over 500 million streams and have opened for acts like Harry Styles, Pearl Jam, and Arctic Monkeys, earning a reputation for anthemic and emotionally rich indie rock.

Why Long Island Should Be There

  • Intimate, Immersive Setting: The Paramount offers all the perks of a large venue – superb acoustics, beautifully restored interiors, and cozy seating – while still delivering up-close performances.
  • On the Rise: Inhaler’s star is clearly ascending. Catching them now means seeing them as they climb to mainstream acclaim – especially exciting for fans watching them evolve.
  • Full Night Out: Located in downtown Huntington, the theatre makes it easy to pair the concert with dinner or drinks before or after the show.
